This World Cup song even got the attention of Bayern Munich star Alphonso Davies, who reacted to the song on his stream. It would be an unique experience to play this game while listening to Speed’s song like the game itself. This would be EA’s first soccer simulation title that won’t be called FIFA, as the license expired with the soccer governing body.
